Femi Opesusi, the father of the late Timilehin Opesusi, the 19-year-old who died after ingesting rodent poison following a low score of 146 in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME), has said he used money meant for her tertiary education to buried her.
In an interview with Channels Television, he recounted the chain of events leading to her death on May 12, 2025, from the moment Timilehin received her UTME score, to her final hours.
He also speaks about his pain, his regrets, and his unanswered questions about the Nigerian education system.
Recounting the day of the tragic event, Mr Opesusi said “that morning, I called my daughter. I told her I hadn’t seen her result yet. She said her elder sister, Opeyemi, would send it. When it came, she forwarded it to me, and she said, Daddy, this is not my result! This is not my result! Go and do something!, She was panicking.
“I told her to Calm down and take it easy But she said I scored 190 last year, and now, they gave me 146? This is not my result!
“I tried to calm her down. I said, “Don’t worry. I know what to do.” I Googled Lagos State University of Science and Technology (LASUSTECH) and told her and her sister that they would pay the acceptance and school fees in two days. I told them not to worry — I’d pay for everything.
“Less than an hour later, my daughter called me again. She said, “My sister (Timilehin) is in the hospital.”
“I asked, “Who? Timilehin? Timilehin that I just spoke with 30 minutes ago?” She said Timilehin had taken rat poison”
Asking about maybe he has ever imagined maybe Timilehin could take poison, he said “never! I reassured her and told her to take it easy. I said, “I’m working because of you people; I have the money. Your school fees are there, intact!” Now, I’ve used the school fees to bury her.”
He also disclosed that he has seven children, with Timilehin being the fourth.
